largest and all else must wait.

After finishing "The Eyes of the World," Mr. Wright embarked on thebuilding of a home in the Santa Monica mountains near Hollywood,California. So in the summer of 1915 the little family of fivebegan making their residence in the new canyon home, one ofnature's delightful spots.

Then again, the author went into camp in the Arizona desert whilewriting "When a Man's a Man." For he finds it very helpful to livein the atmosphere of his story while doing the actual writing andhe also avoids frequent interruption. I think he got more realenjoyment out of this story than any he has previously done. It isa story of the out-of-doors in this great unfenced land where a manmust be a man. I suppose, too, he enjoyed writing this work somuch, partly, because it comes so easy for him to just tell a storywithout the intervention of some nerve racking problem. The onlybook he has heretofore written that is purely a story is "TheShepherd of the Hills," and I sometimes wonder to what proportionof his readers does this Ozark story hold first place. For allsuch, I am sure, "When a Man's a Man" will find a reception ofspecial heartiness because it is just a fine, big, wholesome novelof simple sweetness and virile strength.

I have written this sketch of Harold Bell Wright that you may knowhim as intimately, if possible, as if you had met him in person.But should you have the opportunity of making his acquaintance donot deny yourself the pleasure. If you are a lover of his books Iam sure you are just the kind of person that the author himselfdelights to meet.
